Forum Update/Upgrade

[Luinbariel]

As you can see, we have cut over to the new board.

Please post any problems here.

Yes, I realize that your avatars have been removed. That is a *feature* of the migration process. Think of it as new beginnings.

IT BEGINS

My "recent posts" page has gone away, but there is this "new posts" page...

[FlyingMongoose]

One graphical bug, looks to be under the class expcolimage.



Sometimes it's for the - and sometimes it's for the + it's probably just a bad image association.

Note; I'm in Chrome

Also because Toast already mentioned it in IRC.

Is it this confusingly-labelled "Default Thread Subscription Mode:" dropdown?

It is.

WHERE HAS OUR KARMA GONE? IT IS THE MOST IMPORTANT PART OF ANY FORUM EXPERIENCE AND IS WHAT DISPLAYS OUR VALUE AS HUMAN BEINGS AND IT IS LOST FOREVER.

I've noticed that on long threads, the first post at the top of each page is shifted over to the right. I'm guessing it has to do with the page number count bar thing. I'm not sure if there's a fix to that, but it's a little annoying. If it makes a difference, I'm currently viewing the forum on Firefox for OSX.

The same thing happens to me on FF.

So you can usually place some padding or margin around that particular item and it should fix it pretty easily across all browsers (since IE, FIrefox, Opera, and Chrome all interpret these the same), just add a couple of pixels to margin height.

http://docs.mybb.com/1.6/Admin-CP-Themes...Properties <-- though this mentions 1.6 in it's link it should be the same in 1.8. This means you can possible set per-group themes I think.

[Nitrous Oxide]

This is pretty nice, but what's with the post count?

[FlyingMongoose]

Looks like post counts reset in the upgrade (unfortunately) but I guess it's possible to set manually when people ask.

By the way; I'm not a fan of user profiles being publicly visible.

Also we can currently embed videos into signatures; this gets large and annoying (my signature as proof), so... might want to block that.

You can opt to just not show user signatures in your settings. I did that. Problem solved!
